"Saw a man today who said he owned seven slaves of a good stock--he had raised them himself and two of them were worth one thousand dollars apiece; but he had not got enough work out of them yet, and in a few years they would be worth more. May none of us ever be guilty of buying and selling the souls and bodies of our fellow creatures. Slavery is a withering blight upon the prospects, happiness, and freedom of our nation."
